This alert represents how abnormal the behavior of the object is, based on its historical metrics data.  A high number of anomalies usually indicates a problem or at least a situation that requires your attention.

Hi Rahul,

The question is more about how to display those so-called "anomalies", the message is uselessly alarming, I've seen phishing messages casting a random number of "found malware" in a very similar way...

Until vrops can display what it calls "abnormal behavior", the alerts cannot be mitigated and vrops is about as helpful as those phishing pages.

 

Cheers,

Régis
